Hayley Williams announces 2026 solo tour, with face value tickets and a plan to combat scalpers

Hayley Williams has just announced a long-awaited solo tour of North America, Europe and the UK.

In support of 2025 album Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party (and fresh from receiving no less than four GRAMMY nominations for the record), Hayley will be hitting the road from March through June. And she’s revealed plans to ensure tickets are not only reasonably priced, but that they get into the hands of her fans, first and foremost…

Writing on Instagram, she says, “It feels like the right time to let you know… I’m going on tour. And I want to get tickets into the hands of my fans, at a price that is as reasonable as I could get.

“I’ve had countless conversations with my team, and they’ve spent countless hours trying to find the best solution for fans to be able to buy tickets. It’s been tough (to say the least), and unfortunately, there’s no way to guarantee that zero tickets get scalped. But we’re doing our best.

“In short, I’m trying out a platform called Openstage to host a verified presale registration. Openstage’s fan validation system helps verify human fans and reduce bots and scalpers, giving my fans a better chance to access tickets.

“All registrants will be required to verify both their email address and phone number as a preventative measure against bots and scalpers. Only those registered and verified for the presale will receive a unique code to purchase tickets during the presale period.

“It’s important to note that receiving a code does not guarantee you will be able to buy tickets – they will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis.”

In a second slide, Hayley adds that, “I know this system won’t be perfect. You shouldn’t have to jump through hoops to buy tickets to see the show, but unfortunately, it’s a broken and convoluted system. My team and I are doing everything we can, and I am hopefully that the processes we’ve put into place will get as many tickets into the hands of my fans (at face value) as possible.

“I can’t wait to be back on the road and see all of your faces. We’ll dance, scream and cry together.”
